Listen to #youngcarers during the 3rd International Young Carers Conference #iycc2021 . Wonderful Symposium - target group involvement at its best! @AgnesLeu11 @ElenaGuggiari @hannah_wepf @Nka_anhoriga @profsaulbecker @SRabhiSidler @CareumCH – at Stäfa, Schweiz
Leaving my voluntary twitter hiatus to draw attention to #iycc2021. Four days of global conversation with and for young carers! eurocarers.org/2021-iycc/
3rd International conference on young carers starts today at 1pm. Yes, it’s a bank holiday in the UK, but not in the rest of the world! Enjoy! #iycc2021 #youngcarers
Grateful to be learning about identifying young carers in Sweden, Finland, UK and Japan. #iycc2021

Life has put a serious cramp on my twitter presence, but I'm back to ask former students to help me advertise my Geographies of Religion class. I can only teach it every other year, and it is an amazing experience every time I do. @geographyunc
In case you missed it, be sure to check out UNC's #TwitterTakeover yesterday highlighting #DecolonizeUNC. Important enough for me to log back into 'the twitter'...Many thanks @ListerMajerle
Huge thanks to @geographyunc grad student Majerle Lister (@ListerMajerle) for yesterday's #TwitterTakeover, covering the #DecolonizeUNC rally and much more! Keep an eye out for future takeovers 📱👀
Ethics of care, youth, and racial geopolitics in the US at the turn of the 20th century, viewed through an unexpected story of women in public health. It's my attempt to historicize discussions of young carers and challenge our time/space framings: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

This must be not only discussed, but acted upon. And it should be up to those of us in secure positions and with all the privileges we are afforded to shoulder this burden.

And many of these women have kids & the kids help in varying degrees of providing care but it always impacts their lives as well #kidsarecaregiverstoo & they are mostly alone b/c well "their kids" & many adults don't realize how much it effects them ❤ in positive & negative ways
Women shoulder most of the caregiving burden, but no one is in this alone. Please visit usagainstalzheimers.org/lear… for resources and information about support groups. #WomensHistoryMonth
Amazing opportunity to work with @carbonshed @geographyunc
